| | Macromedia Flash - Facts, Information, and Encyclopedia Reference article |
 | | Macromedia Flash, or simply Flash, refers to both a multimedia authoring program and the Macromedia Flash Player, written and distributed by Macromedia (to be acquired by Adobe Systems), that utilizes vector and raster graphics, a native scripting language called ActionScript and bidirectional streaming of video and audio. |
 | | Flash Player uses a sandbox security model, which means that Flash applications running in a browser have very strict and limited resources available to them. |
 | | Flash can retain information locally (in a manner similar, but more extensive, to browser cookies), giving the client the ability to, for example, remember the level or score a user has achieved on a Flash-based game, or the settings used on a previously visited website. |
